It's "easiest" to just remove eds from the gnome-panel compile using /etc/portage/package.use and re-emerge gnome-panel. Do you have a driving need for gnome-panel to support evolution-data-server? Since GNOME 2.8 doesn't have Beagle, I don't know what this option is even for, but then again, I avoid Evo and subsidiaries, so I don't know much about what the data server might be used for in such a circumstance. Alternatively you could of course upgrade to GNOME 2.10, but that really is kinda unstable, ime :-( , especially if you also have KDE installed. Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
